Expert Statements

Art Zeile, President and CEO of DHI Group

“Our third-quarter results reflect growing momentum at ClearanceJobs and continued progress at Dice. ClearanceJobs delivered 32% year-over-year bookings growth and 18% revenue growth. Importantly, excluding Point Solutions Group, bookings increased 15%, reflecting stronger sales execution and growing demand for cleared talent. Our ClearanceJobs new-business team delivered its strongest bookings quarter in the platform’s 24-year history, and recruitment package customer count increased sequentially. We believe this progress, together with demand from traditional defense contractors, emerging defense technology companies and allied defense firms expanding in the United States, positions ClearanceJobs for sustained growth.”

Art Zeile, President and CEO of DHI Group

“At Dice, the year-over-year bookings decline narrowed for the second consecutive quarter, reflecting progress in our efforts to stabilize the business. Although enterprise renewal spending remains under pressure, our new-business sales performance and demand for specialized technology talent provide encouraging signs. As AI initiatives create new requirements for experienced technology professionals, we believe Dice’s skills-based marketplace is well positioned to serve employers’ evolving needs. We remain focused on improving customer retention and sales execution while building on ClearanceJobs’ momentum to create long-term shareholder value.”

Greg Schippers, CFO of DHI Group

“Our third-quarter performance demonstrates the cash-generating strength of our business model. Disciplined expense management and solid collections supported strong free cash flow, enabling us to reduce debt by $2 million in the quarter while repurchasing approximately 900,000 shares for $3.8 million.”

Greg Schippers, CFO of DHI Group

“We continue to balance investment in our growth opportunities with financial discipline, debt reduction and returning capital to shareholders. At ClearanceJobs, our focus is on translating stronger bookings into sustained revenue growth. At Dice, we are managing expenses carefully while supporting initiatives to improve customer retention and new-business performance. Our recurring revenue base and cash generation provide flexibility to pursue these priorities.”
